[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They haven’t been rescued. They’ll need to shut down the power to the lines first. Can’t believe they’ve been hanging there 3 hours. They must be cold. [/quote] How inefficient does the power company have to be not to cut power in three hours time?[/quote] These were not neighborhood power lines. They were enormous transmission lines. You can’t just cut power to them without affecting ting even more people than are already affected. Are you really this dense and unaware of how the world works?[/quote] I think people without power for a few hours, even if there are 100s of thousands, is just fine. Did you know there are such things as generators for those that can afford them? My husband was able to convert a car battery to use to power a few lights and charge devices for emergencies in winter. Consider it practice for when our power grid is hit by the Chinese.[/quote] I suspect many people affected by this incident can’t afford them or live in apartments so they can’t use them.[/quote]
